Great experience

Nellie Navidi and Kristen Wilson provided excellent support for us during my husband's application for the CR1 visa. They were very timely in collecting all the documents we needed for our application and carefully reviewed the paperwork to ensure there were no mistakes. Whenever we had any questions... for them, they always answered in a timely manner and made sure we fully understood the process. We highly recommend anyone going through this process to go to Weinstock Immigration Lawyers. It was wonderful working with them. Thank you! Rachel and Jeyhun

Our experience with Wienstock was awesome!

Our personal experience was only 8-9 months. Every form, letter or petition was put together in such a way that all we did was pass the package prepared by the great attorneys at Wienstock through the window and Bang it was stamped approved. The entire process was easy and amazing when you have a gr...eat firm behind you. There were others at the Consulate that were denied because all of their documents were not in order. We highly recommend Wienstock.

Dedicated Attorney

In May of 2015 I contacted the law firm of Weinstock Immigration Lawyers to get the help I needed in acquiring permanent residence. I was placed in contact with Nellie Navidi (one of their attorneys) who from my first appointment made me feel at ease and confident in this quest I was about to undert...ake. She exuded in warmth, genuineness, kindness and was attentive to my concerns. I must say she is professional, efficient and very knowledgeable about immigration issues. Nellie quieted all my concerns and made the process happen for me - because of Nellie, I was able to become a permanent resident and a very happy, satisfied client. She is reliable and trustworthy. How do I say thank you Nellie? There are not enough words to express my sincere thanks for a service done with a spirit of excellence. I MOST DEFINITELY will be recommending friends and anyone I know who needs an immigration attorney to handle their affairs to Nellie Navidi. Thanks Nellie.

319-B Expedited citizenship from Morocco

Nellie was very professional and competent in managing our unique citizenship case. My spouse's case was expedited Citizenship with a 319-B exception while living abroad with me as a private military contractor. Nellie had to adapt and prove our case a USCIS officer that had no experience with a cas...e of our circumstances and did not want to grant my wife's citizenship. She was successful in doing so as our case was approved, at the same time very friendly and comforting to be around because of her positivity and sense of humor........ Not the typical attorneys Im used to. Nellie was very sincere with my wife's case and council and I do not believe we would have been successful without her. Thanks again Nellie!
